Thandie Newton was so fucking good in Westworld. Been aware of her since Mission: Impossible II, never knew she was such a phenomenal actress.
 
I thought they started filming like 2 weeks ago?

A good point. Probably the kind of role with five minutes worth of screentime, or maybe they need some quick replacements.

I like this cast. I really want a Pulp Fiction-style Star Wars film about barely competent drug runners in a galaxy far, far away.
